How to copy stuff to my A2000?
« on: February 21, 2012, 03:09:26 PM »
Is there some way i can get files onto my A2000 without using floppies?

Is it easy to set up something using a null modem cable?

Thanks for all the replies.

I just remembered that I have an external SCSI CD-ROM drive from my now non-working LCIII. The cable is the same DB25 (i think) connector to the computer.

I would imagine that this would work with the A2000 even though it is Apple branded.

Thing is i have no idea what drivers to use. On my A1200 i use IDE, so IDEfix does the trick but with SCSI i have no idea what software / drivers to use.
